(Peggy, hearing that soldiers about to start for Francs are to be disappointed be cause an animal circus, which was to give them a "cheer-up" show has been wrecked, volunteers, with . her Birds, to take Its place.) PEGGY found -that she had a ' much' larger company than he had expected. The birds on the way to camp ; had spread the newt that they were goiri"; to be in a how and had been joined by scores of friends and .relatives from nearby swamps and meadows, all keen to get into the fun. .' ! - - , . v As she entered the stage door Balky Sam reminded her of her promise. - "Remember. I am to be the clown 1" he called to her. ' PegfTy turned to Ben and Bill. , "Youll let Balky Sam be in our show?" she asked them. "Sure, if you can get him to do anything besides sit down," they an swered. "We will unhitch at the barn and then he can come back." Peggy carried her baggage, into the theater and the recreation director showed her a dressing room. There tt quickly put on her spangled cos tume and ran back to the stage. From the other side of the curtain came a loud, confused rumble. ' "What's that awful noise?" she asked the recreation director. "Why, that's your audience," he answered. Peggy felt her knees begin to tremble. The roar sounded like a pack of hungry lions. Supposing the soldiers didn't like her show what would they do to her? Timidly she crept across the stage to a peekhole in the curtain. The big theater was packed from floor to roof with thousands of soldiers. They were talking and whistling and singing. But Peggy noticed that they were beginning to get a bit impatient. It wouldn't do to keep them waiting much longer. Peggy turned to look at the stage. It was just fine for a bird show. The scenery showed a forest, with bushes, rocks and grassy mounds, giving the birds plenty of jplaces on which to perch. They had already made them selves at home and were chattering, so excitedly among themselves that they almost drowned out the racket of the soldiers. "We will have to start at once," said the recreation director. "Tell me when you are ready and I'll ring up the curtain." . . This brought a dismaying thought to Peggy. She'd promised the soldiers a show, the birds were ready and she hadn't planned a thing for them to do. She'd have to think fast now. Why not give a rural sketch, calling it "Back Home on the Farm?" The idea seemed good to her. "You'll have to be actors," she cried, to Ben and Bill, who had come on the stage to see if -they could help her. "What can you do?" "I can play the mouth organ," spoke up Ben. ' FARM AND RANCH LANDS Iowa Lands. OWNER in Class 1. 160 acres, Hi miles from R. R. town and consolidated school House, S rooms. . Barn room for 11 horses.

"You can dress as farmer boys and pretend you're playing to the birds 'way put in the woods.' Ben and Bill borrowed overalls and jumpers from a couple of stagehands and were ready in a jiffy. Peggy explained to the birds what they were to do. .. "Just have a good time," she said. "Dance to the music and do any kind of stunts you can think of." "You can depend on us, Princess Peggy! chorused the birds. .Peggy quickly arranged her group ing. ; Ben, and Bill sat on the floor while the birds gathered in the back ground listening to the music of the mouth organ and accordeon. Judge Owl and Blue Heron were close to the footlights on either side of the stage. "We're ready" whispered Peggy to the recreation director. He stepped in front of the curtain to explain the change in the bill. "You have come to see an animal circus," he said, "but the circus was wrecked and so Princess Peggy and her birli will take its place." , This announcement was greeted with groans. 1 The soldiers didn't like it a bit to be told after waiting all this time that they were not going to see the show vthey expected. As Peggy heard the groans her heart sank. But she was too brave to be scared out. ' "Stand by me, my birds," she whis pered, "and we'll 'give them a show that will surprise them.", Up went the curtain. Peggy saw a blur of faces. She bo.wed and turned to her birds. But the birds were gone. As the curtain had risen they had risen too.

' - New Tork, July 14. Cotton goods today were 'In fair demand, sales being . made for the last quarter of the year oa the basis of - government prices. "... Tarns were unchsnged, ths "demand being In excess of ths supply. Burlaps were steady and quiet. . . . .aw i . j i moment Then Peggy heard a loud guffaw from the drummer' seat in the orchestrsu.lt was Sambo, , the negro she had chased when she was driving the auto. '"What a bum show!" he howled im politely. Peggy saw everything going to smash. Her plans to give the sol diers a laugh seemed all spoiled. " But there came a queer hero to the rescue. It was Blue Heron, one bird who hadn't flown away. He had stood on one leg, - looking blinkingly out over the audience, never moving. Now he stalked to the footlights, picked up a padded drumstick and solemnly thumped Sambo on the head. It was so odd and Sambo was so astonished, the soldiers let out a roar of laughter.' That broke the ice.Ben started playing his mouth organ like mad and Bill joined in with the ac cordeon. Down from their hiding places fluttered the birds, making a picture that brought quick applause from the soldiers. Ben and Bill started a patriotic medley, opening with "Maryland, My Maryland." Clear bird trill took up the air Orioles, Mocking , Birds, Warblers formed a wonderful choir in perfect accord with mouth organ and accordeon. The strain changed to "Dixie" and the Mocking Birds trilled the melody with a wild fevor that brought the soldier boys shouting to their feet. Again the air changed, this time to "My Country Tis of Thee," and every bird that had a voice raised it joyfully in the anthem, some carry ing the air, some introducing quaint variations, some just adding theit bit to the inspiring volume of sound. Their enthusiasm spread to the audi ence. As one man, the soldiers poured forth a mighty chorus of patri otic praise in which the shrill bird trills blended with fantastic beauty. And, as the mighty wave of sound died away the soldiers cheered and cheered and cheered. Peggy knew that her show was a winner. j (Tomorrow It will be told bow the show develops a lot of astonishing fun.) sign they will spell the name to previous puzzle-KAHAU) OMAHA LIVE STOCK Cattle Record is Broken When Sale is Made at $18.40; Hog Market Makes Advance. .
